Discussion 1
My topic I chose is Environment Science. Do the SCI 200 assignment that is uploaded below.
Discussion 2
This blog post has two sections:
- Creative Work
Write a paragraph of fiction or one page of a screenplay that demonstrates setting. You have not learned much about the forms at this point except through examples in the module resources; use these to guide your writing. You will learn more about the specifics of each form when you prepare to write your first draft in Module Five.
- Reflection Questions
Why did you choose the form (fiction or screenplay) you used to apply setting?
In what way(s) does your choice appeal to your personal interests and style?
SCI 200 Project Part One: Research Question Guidelines and
Rubric
Overview: Now that you have identified an issue in the natural sciences to research for your project, the next step is to formulate a specific research question to
investigate in your planning document. For example, if your topic was electric cars, the following is an example question that would narrow the focus of your
research: “What advances must be made in electric car technology and usage to have an impact on climate change?” As you develop your research question,
think about how English physician John Snow was forced to develop his questions, and how they had to change over time. With that in mind, you will investigate
sources for your chosen topic, so your research question may evolve as you discover more details related to your topic. Remember that science is an iterative
process.
Prompt: Articulate a clear and specific research question related to the topic that you would like to investigate. You will submit this question to your instructor
for feedback and guidance while shaping the direction of your planning document.
Specifically, the following critical element must be addressed:
Based on what you know so far about your chosen topic, develop a specific research question. In other words, what would you like to know more about
the topic?
Rubric
Guidelines for Submission: Your research question should be one to two sentences, double spaced, with 12-point Times New Roman font and one-inch margins.
